Newbie @ Jailbreaking

The title says it all - I'd like to jailbreak my iPhone 4 but have NO clue where to begin, what the risks are associated with it, etc. I searched the forum looking for a sticky or previous thread but nothing consequential turned up. If someone could explain the risks associated with this and perhaps point me in the right direction; aka a website with a dedicated guide for HOW to do it on Windows 7 - that would be badass. Thanks!

I'm googling as we speak but people are talking about limeran and geohot, and something about a stable jailbreak for 4.1 not being released yet. I'm a little bit behind - care to give me a history lesson

Ive been JBing my iPhone for 2 years & as long as it worked I didnt spend alot of time on worrying how.

My point is, JBing is very confusing to newbies & to those who dont make an effort to keep up regularly.
